Re: Yamaha G8 rear end noise?
Would the rear end from a “Sun Classic” G5 work on it? The frame on the G5 is done but the rear is good.

Re: Yamaha G8 rear end noise?
Don’t know what would be a drop in swap. Measure it. I’m willing to bet it won’t be that hard to find something that fits

Re: Yamaha G8 rear end noise?
If you would only use the center section (axles and axle housings are only for specific models), Yes a G5-e would work. Also anything from a G1-e to a G8-e before they changed to a "Dana" style transaxle. Good Luck

Re: Yamaha G8 rear end noise?
I don't know off the top of my head. Measuring the mounting pads, and overall width is the only way to know. Also be sure to have a look at the brake cable mount points. The G8 was an odd ball, and the G5 was a different oddball. Both are very close in years. Motor mounting should be compatible. I suggest you share pics along with measurements.

Re: Yamaha G8 rear end noise?
Shure, but you'd need a new gasket minimum.

Re: Yamaha G8 rear end noise?
I would pull it apart if it was mine. But beforehand get a mechanics stethoscope from harbor freight since they are a couple bucks and listen to the case all over to see if you can isolate where in the rear it is coming from.
